One of the best natural zones in the area. Bring some food up, grill it over charcoal, and enjoy the scenery and trails

The grand loop trail or Juniper trail is beautiful. Around 2000ft elevation so a moderate to hard hike

Runqiu Cai

If you're feeling ambitious, park at the school on the south side and bike up to the peak. Going up takes about 3 hours and coming down takes 20 minutes

Adil Ansari

For the best views Summit trail to North Peak trail to Juniper Camp to Summit via Juniper trail . It took us approx 5 hours to complete this 7 mile course

Jenifer Bazzani

Amazing (LONG) 15 mile hike if you start from the bottom.. Beautiful views ..

Bike advise: Pay close attention during your descent, cars will pass other bikers on blind corners and you will find yourself in deep jeopardy

Shawn C

There are more bikes then cars on the way up but its a short ride with lots to look at.

Late September/early Oct are best times to hike because weather is good and you can see tarantulas (not dangerous) walking about, looking for mates.

Gorgeous views on a clear day. Bring a jacket as its chilly up here. Not my favorite place to camp but it's a great hiking spot. It's a state park though so no booze or dogs allowed in trails. - Laura L
